Coconut Rice Conditioning Exfoliant
This luxurious, coconut-scented exfoliant for face and body is simply
divine. For centuries, Asian cultures have used rice in skincare
formulations to encourage clear, luminous, and porcelain skin. The rice
gently exfoliates while the penetrating moisture from the coconut cream
brings vitamins and minerals to the deeper dermal layers of your skin,
helping to strengthen tissues while fighting fine lines, wrinkles, hyper-
pigmentation, and dull, dry skin. Use this gorgeous head-to-toe skin
treatment weekly to enhance your skin’s natural luminosity.YIELDS: 1 full body application
